That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.
For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

I'm tired, boss.
Edit:
"Soon after launch". Fuck.
As of two weeks ago it was listed when I bought.
Also Easy Anti cheat does not preclude Linux from being supported.
I mean, yeah, Proton does have EasyAntiCheat Runtime but I wondered because it says kernel level anti-cheat. Though I know a couple games that run fine on Linux even though their Steam page states kernel level anti-cheat, so maybe that's not a problem at all. But I guess we have rights to have suspicions.
Oh yea no doubt.
The whole anti cheat thing is so damn silly anyways.
Kernel level anti cheat only really became necessary after we destroyed user hostable servers and mods that could just kick and ban cheaters.
Could have easily expanded that system and lets humans be the anti cheat. Would have educated a bunch of people and brought us all closer by watching each other's digital backs..
But nah you need to let EA access your systems most vulnerable parts after reading that Bobby Kotick and Jeffrey Epstein were indoctrinating kids into the economy via CoD points.
Love this world
Edit: I know Bobby Kotick and EA are not literally related, point is I don't trust any of these people.
